    I have 2 big freezers that are normally full. Been slowly eating them down as I was going to defrost both this spring. Both were almost empty.
    I normally have a few months of supplies so I was good on the pantry.
    My neighbor works for a food wholesaler so I bought 100lbs of chicken from him for freezer fodder.
    Just before the store madness started I bought 20lbs rice and a couple flats of canned veggies.
    Last but not least 5 handles of rye liquor .:cool:

    Right! I have the same belief. Now-a-days, I always top it off anytime after 3/4 tank left. :handshake:

    1/2 is empty in my vehicles always. Keeps as much moisture out of the tanks as possible at all times.

    I burn 2-3 tanks a week in my car. I fill it as needed depending on length of the days drive vs fullness of the tank.

    Wife seems to have a game she plays where she sees just how low she can get the fuel level without running out.
